Abstract. One of the world's major producers of molybdenum and rhenium powders is Herman C. Starck Berlin (HCST). Annual production today is in the region of 500–600 tonnes of molybdenum powder and some 4500 kg of rhenium powder. Metal Powder Report recently had the opportunity to visit HCST's plant in Goslar, Germany, and reports on the ...
rhenium requirements by about 50 percent. The number of companies that process molybdenum-rhenium scrap and tungsten-rhenium scrap continues to grow, especially in the United States and Germany. In addition, spent platinum-rhenium catalysts are recycled, and the rhenium is recovered.
The remaining product is molybdenum disulfide and is between 85 and 92% pure. Further treatment can dissolve the remaining copper, lead or other contaminants and produce even purer molybdenum disulfide. 3. Roasting. Furnaces roast the molybdenum disulfide at a temperature of between 900 and 1200 degrees Fahrenheit.
The researchers also used electrolysis to produce rhenium and molybdenum, which are often found in copper sulfides at very small levels. The new work builds on a 2016 Journal of The Electrochemical Society paper offering proof of electrolytic extraction of copper authored by Samira Sokhanvaran, Sang-Kwon Lee, Guillaume Lambotte, and Allanore.
Description: Of molybdenum we produce molybdenum wire for different applications. The name molybdenum comes from Ancient greek, molybdos. The silvery metal has the sixth highest melting point of all metals, for example tungsten and rhenium has higher melting points.

1. Introduction. Molybdenum (Mo), as a high temperature refractory metal, is widely used as alloying element in the iron&steel industry, which can enhance the strength and tenacity of cast steel, and the uniformity of large casting structure, .According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) statistics of 2020, the global molybdenum reserve is about 180 million tons (metal basis), while the ...
Molybdenum-rhenium alloys containing 40 to 48% Re by weight are commonly used for many high-technology applications. Higher rhenium contents bring the alloys into a two-phase region with the presence of brittle o-phase, an intermetallic compound with the approximate composition of Mo 2 Re 3.Alloys with lower rhenium contents do not possess sufficient low-temperature ductility and high ...

Molybdenum-rhenium extraction was unaffected by presence of chalcopyrite in the molybdenite concentrate; however, molybdenum extraction declines if the copper content, as chalcocite, exceeds 7 pct. High-purity molybdenum and rhenium compounds can be recovered from the electrolyzed reaction mass by liquid-solid separation, solvent extraction ...
Rhenium Alloys. In addition to pure rhenium H. Cross Company also produces a 50/50 (48% rhenium by analysis) rhenium molybdenum alloy that combines the strength of molybdenum and rhenium's ductility. This product is available in all the same forms and sizes as pure rhenium at lower cost due to the lower rhenium percentage.
Rhenium Alloys is a global leader in providing Rhenium chemicals required by manufacturers for critical parts and components. They are widely used in the production of high density, high temperature parts for aerospace, defense, energy and X-ray device industries. We supply three standard powders, Rhenium, Molybdenum-Rhenium and Tungsten-Rhenium.
The second most frequent use of rhenium is that of a catalyst. Platinum rhenium catalysts are used to produce high-octane lead-free gasoline. Additionally, rhenium is needed in the form of molybdenum-rhenium alloys in the aviation and electronics industry for reactors, semiconductors, electrical contacts, filaments and ignition wires.
Platinum-rhenium catalysts are used to produce high-octane, unleaded gasoline. In the early 1970s, Chevron Corp. developed a series of platinum-rhenium catalysts that would not react with sulfur. As a response to the oil crisis in the 1970s and early 1980s, a second generation of more efficient catalysts was developed with double the platinum ...
Rhenium production from copper and molybdenum sulphides involves the use of a pyrometallurgical process. In traditional pyrometallurgy processes, gases emissions produce unacceptable air pollution and damage the extractive metallurgy equipment, leading to high production cost. Due to the environmental disadvantages presented by the oxidizing roasting, in this paper the …
Molybdenum roasters equipped to recover rhenium are one of the principal commercial sources for this rare metal. Smelting Ferromolybdenum. Between thirty and forty percent of tech oxide production is processed into ferromolybdenum (FeMo). The oxide is mixed with iron oxide and reduced by aluminium in a thermite reaction, producing a ...
A process for the recovery of molybdenum and rhenium from their sulfide ores which comprises subjecting the ores to microwave energy in the presence of oxygen to selectively heat the sulfides to convert them to oxides, and recovering the formed oxides. Alternatively, the sulfides in the ore are selectively heated with microwave energy in the presence of chlorine to convert them to the ...
We produce tungsten rhenium wires, rhenium molybdenum wires, tungsten rhenium bars/rods and molybdenum rhenium alloys. Rhenium and tungsten, molybdenum or platinum alloy metals and their coating materials are widely used in electronics and aerospace industry due to their high melting point, high resistance, strong magnetism and good stability.
